Dallin H. Oaks
We should recognize that the Lord will speak to us through the Spirit in His own time and in His own way.

Let us remember that desires dictate our priorities, priorities shape our choices, and choices determine our actions. In addition, it is our actions and our desires that cause us to become something, whether a true friend, a gifted teacher, or one who has qualified for eternal life.
Dallin H. Oaks
...When a choice will make a real difference in our lives—obvious or not—and when we are living in tune with the Spirit and seeking his guidance, we can be sure we will receive the guidance we need to attain our goal.
Dallin H. Oaks
I think it's important for you to understand that homosexuality is not a noun that describes a condition. It's an adjective that describes feelings or behavior.
Dallin H. Oaks
God loves all of His children. He has provided a plan for His children to enjoy the choicest blessings that He has to offer in eternity. Those choicest blessings are associated with marriage between a man and a woman by appropriate priesthood authority to bring together a family unit for creation and happiness in this life and in the life to come.
Dallin H. Oaks
When we undertake to cover our sins, . . . behold, the heavens withdraw themselves the Spirit of the Lord is grieved and when it is withdrawn, Amen to the priesthood or the authority of that man
Dallin H. Oaks

Dallin H. Oaks
Most angelic communications are felt or heard rather than seen.
Dallin H. Oaks
The distinction between feelings or inclinations on the one hand, and behavior on the other hand, is very clear. It's no sin to have inclinations that if yielded to would produce behavior that would be a transgression. The sin is in yielding to temptation. Temptation is not unique. Even the Savior was tempted.
Dallin H. Oaks
The word sharing affirms that we have something extraordinarily valuable and desire to give it to others for their benefit and blessing.
Dallin H. Oaks
Our priorities are most visible in how we use our time. Someone has said, “Three things never come back—the spent arrow, the spoken word, and the lost opportunity.” We cannot recycle or save the time allotted to us each day. With time, we have only one opportunity for choice, and then it is gone forever.
Dallin H. Oaks
The ultimate defining fact for all of us is that we are children of Heavenly Parents, born on this earth for a purpose, and born with a divine destiny.
